  • CORRECTION of DEFORMITIES of the JAW by Patrick Clarkson M.B.E., M.B., B.S., F.R.C.S
    CORRECTION OF DEFORMITIES OF THE JAW by Patrick Clarkson M.B.E., M.B., B.S., F.R.C.S. Casualty Surgeon, Guy's Hospital and Plastic Surgeon, Basingstoke Plastic;Ccntre. I. INTRODUCTION Degrees of Deformity and Pathology. Cooperation between Surgeon and Orthodontist. Surgical Treatment: Indication and Scope. Choice between radical surgery and " masking" operations. II. SURGICAL METHODS OF CORRECTION 1. Symmetrical Prognathism of the Mandible. 2. Asymmetrical Prognathism of the Mandible. 3. Symmetrical Recession of the Mandible. 4. Asymmetrical Recession of the Mandible. 5. The Jaw Deformities in Cleft Palate: Mandible and Maxilla. 6. Combined Jaw and Nasal Reductions. III. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION I. INTRODUCTION A deformity of the jaw can be defined as any variation in these bones from the normal for the sex, age, and race of the patient; but only rela- tively gross variations come within the field of surgical repair. It is always possible by close examination to discover some degree of asymmetry in soft and bony tissues of the face, but the great majority of variations in facial skeleton, both symmetrical and unilateral, are scarcely noticeable to ordinary examination and require no treatment. Next in order of severity are a group of congenital origin which, given early and full ortho- dontic treatment, respond well without the need of surgery. This group includes a few of the early-cases of prognathism, of congenital open bite, and of recession of the jaw. Almost every case with these deformities can be improved by early orthodontic treatment. But all the more severe cases of prognathism, of recession, and the jaw deformities seen in patients with cleft palate, need surgical intervention if the correction is to be a complete one.

    Joanne Freeman: Major funding for Back Story is provided by an anonymous donor, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the University of Virginia, and the Robert and Joseph Cornel Memorial Foundation. Ed Ayers: From Virginia Humanities, this is Back Story. Brian Balogh: Welcome to Back Story, the show that explains the history behind today's headlines. I'm Brian Balogh. Ed Ayers: I'm Ed Ayers. Joanne Freeman: I'm Joanne Freeman. Ed Ayers: If you're new to the podcast, we're all historians. Each week, we explore the history of one topic that's been in the news. Joanne Freeman: Now, picture a luxury hotel. Attentive staff buzz around serving drinks to thirsty golfers who've just come in after playing 18 holes; but behind a false wall, there's a blast door intended to keep out radiation from a nuclear bomb. Nobody who works here knows, but this is where the American president, senators, and congressmen will hide out if America comes under attack by nuclear weapons. Sounds like a James Bond movie, right? Joanne Freeman: We're going to start off today by going underground to a secret facility standing by not far from here. Garrett Graff: ... I ever went to was the Greenbrier bunker, which would have been the congressional bunker and relocation facility during the course of the Cold War. Brian Balogh: This is the writer and historian, Garrett Graff. Garrett Graff: It was this bunker hidden under this very fine golf resort in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. The resort is still used as a annual congressional retreat.

    Gender Reassignment Surgery Policy Number: PG0311 ADVANTAGE | ELITE | HMO Last Review: 07/01/2021 INDIVIDUAL MARKETPLACE | PROMEDICA MEDICARE PLAN | PPO GUIDELINES This policy does not certify benefits or authorization of benefits, which is designated by each individual policyholder terms, conditions, exclusions and limitations contract. It does not constitute a contract or guarantee regarding coverage or reimbursement/payment. Self-Insured group specific policy will supersede this general policy when group supplementary plan document or individual plan decision directs otherwise. Paramount applies coding edits to all medical claims through coding logic software to evaluate the accuracy and adherence to accepted national standards. This medical policy is solely for guiding medical necessity and explaining correct procedure reporting used to assist in making coverage decisions and administering benefits. SCOPE X Professional X Facility DESCRIPTION Transgender is a broad term that can be used to describe people whose gender identity is different from the gender they were thought to be when they were born. Gender dysphoria (GD) or gender identity disorder is defined as evidence of a strong and persistent cross-gender identification, which is the desire to be, or the insistence that one is of the other gender. Persons with this disorder experience a sense of discomfort and inappropriateness regarding their anatomic or genetic sexual characteristics. Individuals with GD have persistent feelings of gender discomfort and inappropriateness of their anatomical sex, strong and ongoing cross-gender identification, and a desire to live and be accepted as a member of the opposite sex. Gender Dysphoria (GD) is defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fifth Edition, DSM-5™ as a condition characterized by the "distress that may accompany the incongruence between one’s experienced or expressed gender and one’s assigned gender" also known as “natal gender”, which is the individual’s sex determined at birth.

THE most important doctrines of Circumstantial Evidence have been so ably treated in the learned works of Mr. Bentham and Mr. Starkie, that an apology may be thought necessary for this publication. It will however be per ceived, that the design of the following Essay is different in some important particulars from that of either of the above-mentioned authors; and that an attempt has been made to illustrate the subject by the application of many instructive cases, some of which have been compiled from original documents, and others from publications not easily accessible. It has not always been practicable to support the state ment of cases by reference to books of recognised authority, or of an equal degree of credit; but discrimination has uniformly been exercised in the adoption of such state ments; and they have generally been verified by compa rison with contemporaneous and independent accounts.

Professor and Program Director Duke University Duke Clinical Research Institute For Diagnosis, There are Analytic Diagnostic Test Metrics Metrics • Diagnostic accuracy • Reliability • Diagnostic accuracy relates to the ability of • Sensitivity a test to discriminate between the target condition and another competing condition. • Specificity • Positive and Negative Predictive Value • Positive and Negative Likelihood Ratios Does Reliability Matter? Sensitivity and Specificity No worries, The you will Sensitivity: Percentage of people who test positive for a condition • be fine is fatal specific disease among a group of people who have the disease • Specificity: Percentage of people who test negative for a specific disease among a group of people who do not have the disease Kappa Intraclass Correlation www.zillowblog.com Coefficient 5 1 9/6/2018 Sensitivity Example Specificity Example • 50 patients with arm pain associated • 50 patients with no arm pain with cervical radiculopathy associated with a cervical strain • Test was positive in 40 of the 50 • Test was positive in 5 of the 50 cases cases • Sensitivity = 40/50 or 80% • Specificity = 45/50 or 90% • Correct 80% of the time in cases • Correct 90% of the time in cases that were cervical radiculopathy that were NOT cervical radiculopathy http://www.triggerpointbook.com/infrasp2.gif http://www.triggerpointbook.com/infrasp2.gif Likelihood Ratios • A high LR+ influences post-test probability with a positive finding • A value of >1 rules in a diagnosis • A low LR- influences post-test probability with a negative finding • A value closer to 0 is best and rules out Bossuyt P, et al.
